Suggestion: industrial cleaner

[AGlezB]

Devs, please add an industrial cleaner, which is a big ass machine requiring 15 reputation and 10K credits that'll clean everything from the bills including marks and dirt and whatever. Just let me put in the bills and get them out clean and dry and ready to sort, because the minute I had to deal with marked bills the game stopped being fun.

I just counted 27 sponge passes to clean a single bill and while I know some people will love the mindless work, that's not my kind of grind.

I've been dumping batches of 100 in the workbench which spreads them all out. Then vigorously swipe mouse back and forth over the pile (don't do the *whole* pile at once, just whatever motion is easiest for you and do it in chunks). This cleans a *bunch* of bills at the same time.

Also, it seems like if the *entire* bills is not covered in a pass of the sponge, it doesn't count. I've noticed this mostly when lining up bills to swipe more than one at a time, and the middle bills get cleaned faster than the two on the ends. So make sure you're swiping over the whole bill.

Related to this, if you accidentally stack an inked (or dirty, or both) bill on top of a pile of clean bills, *all* of the bills will now have 1 wipes worth of ink (or dirt - and it stacks, so getting a clean bill inky and dirty will take 2 swipes to clean).

Why would you ever have inkstains on a bill? I dont think ive ever gotten money with inkstains. And of course, you can still send it with the inkstains, just to any customers that doesnt care if the bills are clean.

i never had to clean any billls by hand to progress or complete the game

all my ink stained bills are in a giant box


UNLESS - you were a dolt and opened all your bags the wrong way (bank bags) then cleaning ink is just unnecessary atm.

I send ink money to the pig lol no way in hell am I wrecking my wrist swipping for hours on end. I already have too many hours on this game due to my autism, but I'm not tistic enough to scrub ink that long.

Most meticulous thing I do is fan out bills in a circle around UV at night to find marked bills. Even then I want a machine eventually that can pick out marked bills or separate it from the rest. Like a bill verifier that separates fake and marked bills for integrity

I'm guessing you haven't opened the vault yet. There are 7 sport bags with stained money there.
